Square 1 Art Catalogs are Coming Home Soon!

We have partnered with your child’s school to create a unique opportunity to celebrate their artistic accomplishments while raising much needed funds for the school.

Coming home soon will be your child’s custom catalog featuring their artwork. Won’t you help make your child feel like an accomplished artist by purchasing keepsakes for the whole family containing their masterpiece? The school earns profit from every order. And as a thank you for participating, we provide each child with a sheet of stickers imprinted with their artwork — absolutely FREE!

Watch for more details about the campaign and order deadlines. All online and paper order forms must be turned in by the due date on your child’s custom catalog. (No late orders can be accepted.) Together, we can help support the school, build your child’s self-esteem, and create lasting keepsakes from your child’s artistic achievements.

Stay healthy out there! Some suggestions from the Division of Public Health.

FIGHT THE FLU!
The Division of Public Health has notified school districts that there has been an increase in cases of the flu over the last few weeks in Delaware. Influenza (flu) is a respiratory illness that is easily spread and can cause mild to severe illness and, in some cases, death. It is spread from person to person through droplets when a person coughs, sneezes, or talks. A person can spread the flu as early as one day before symptoms appear and up to five to seven days after becoming sick.

Recommendations from the Division of Public Health:

Those with flu-like symptoms (fever of 100°F or greater and a cough and/or sore throat) should stay home for at least 24 hours after they no longer have a fever without the use of fever-reducing medicine, like Tylenol or Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin)

Persons with flu-like symptoms should call their healthcare provider. They may recommend antiviral medication to help recovery.

Those who have serious or life-threatening symptoms such as trouble breathing, bluish skin color, fever with a rash, dizziness or severe or persistent vomiting, should seek immediate medical care.

Prevention measures:

Cover coughs and sneezes – Use a tissue or the inner elbow to cover a cough or sneeze. Do not use your hands.

After a cough or a sneeze, wash hands with soap and water or hand sanitizer

Use good handwashing - Wash hands with water and soap, rub hands together for at least 15 seconds then dry hands with a towel. Use the towel to turn off the running water.

Keep hands away from nose, mouth, and eyes
